Protagonists
Victoria
One of the first people you'll meet in the Reborn Region- and one of your rivals. She's a cheery, kind-hearted apprentice, specialising in Fighting types. She intends to challenge the league with you, but often finds herself swept up in more pressing affairs.
"As soon as I heard, I had to go see if I could help! I'd stay and talk more, but I have to hurry!"
Cain
If there's one thing Cain is notorious for, it's his excessive flirtation. It makes no difference if you're a guy or a girl. Cast out of his home, Cain becomes your second rival, specialising in Poison Types, and adding some light-hearted, if edgy, humor and his musical taste to your adventure.
"Heyyyy, you're cute. What? Haha, no, I didn't say anything!"
Fern
Brother to the Grass Gym Leader, Fern consider himself the "top-dog" of his school. He's a social schmooze, and... well, if you thought Gary Oak was bad, you're in for something else. Fern becomes your final rival, and your primary antagonist.
"Later, loser!"
Julia
Julia is the first gym leader, mastering the Electric Type! Formerly the cheer captain at her Trainers' School, she's lost none of her pep since graduating, maintaining her silly disposition and utter fascination with explosions of all kinds. That's kind of her hobby. If she says to run, RUN.
"Kaaaaaaaa... BOOOOOOM!!!"
Florinia
Florinia was once Julia's best friend, but since graduating, they've drifted. She now acts as the Grass Gym Leader, and acting president of the Onyx Trainer's School. She is also known as the "Flobot" due to her monotone and intellectual nature, having cut out her own emotions from herself.
"I might wish you 'Good luck,' however 'luck' is merely an illusory essentialization of statistics, and is not inherently good or bad in any way."
Corey
Corey is the Poison Gym Leader of Reborn. He's known for his sharp words, and admittedly negative attitude. He is stern and cold- and yet, always seems to be in pain. He oftentimes shuts himself in his room or disappears for days at a time, and no one is quite sure why...
"Hope is weakness. It's an illusion meant to sugarcoat this sickening reality."
Shelly
Shelly is the younger sister of Bugsy, of the Johto Region. Neglected throughout her childhood, she's taken the position of Reborn's Bug Gym Leader to try and earn her brother's affection. She's an especially timid girl, having few friends, and dearly afraid of losing them.
"I know this pain it feels... It's lonely..."
Shade
Shade is Reborn's Ghost Gym Leader. Appropriately, no one is quite sure whether or not he's even human- or if it's a "he" at all. Shade almost never speaks, instead appearing quietly, and disappearing a short silence later. There are rumors, though... So many rumors...
"..."
Amaria
One of the highest ranking gym leaders, and the most popular, Amaria is good friends with Julia, Florinia, and pretty much everyone she meets. She appears to always have a smile, but really is deeply concerned about the state of Reborn.
"I have everything a girl could possibly want... Status, a good education, the love of my life... So... why does everything feel so grey?"
Heather
A very young girl with exceeding talent for her age. She's the daughter of Corey, but seems to resent him. She loves riding around on her fearsome Salamence, taking charge and rushing into danger- but is anxious to yell at anyone who tries to tell her what to do.
"What kind of father doesn't let his daughter go out to beat up bad guys?!"
Saphira
A strong, solitary lady, and another high-ranking leader. She is fiercely loyal to her family, and will stop at nothing to ensure what's best for them. She has two younger sisters whose freedom she fights for on a daily basis.
"Revenge is a dish that is best served... now."
Laura
A beautiful but demure young girl, and patient of Dr. Connal. She gets nervous very easily, and shows it in a number of ticks and habits that seem to control her sometimes more than she controls them. Despite her flighty nature, she seems to hold a very high position in Reborn...
"Oh, um........ Excuse me........"
Charlotte
Charlotte is a patient of Dr.Connal, and the youngest of three sisters. She tends to sit back and watch with a quiet awareness, but isn't afraid to throw in her own quips when she feels it necessary. She's also said to be a Gym Leader of Reborn.
"Awesome kind of runs in our family. No big deal."
Anna
Another patient of the Doctor, and twin to Noel, Anna is a very cheerful girl who has a tendency to see and hear things that others don't. She's also inseparably attached to her Jirachi doll, Nostra, and insists that Nostra talks to her quite frequently.
"Nostra says she can feel your friend's sorrow on you... Something really bad must have happened, right?"
Noel
Noel is a patient of the Doctor as well, and Anna's twin brother. He sometimes appears to be more distant than his sister, but similarly keeps a Cleffa Doll, Nomos. He says he can hear it speak, but Anna has a tendency to correct what he hears from it.
"Nomos and Nostra are just dolls, but... hi. Um... Nomos says 'Hi,' too."
Dr. Sigmund Connal
The famous local psychiatrist, Dr. Sigmund Connal runs an orphanage for his younger patients as well, so that he may better observe and guide them and their development. He has a strong reputation though, and not all of it positive, being that he uses his Electric Pokemon to preform controversial shock therapy on some of his patients.
"Now just hold still. ...You might feel a little shock..."
Kiki
Reborn's Fighting Gym Leader, and a woman of unshakable mental strength. She practices and teaches zen at a beach academy she built herself far out of the city. She's also Victoria's sensei.
"We mustn't let our inner turmoil complicate outside affairs."
Cal
The former Fire Gym Leader of Reborn, he retired due to personal issues and now studies under Kiki. He is often very distant, but has won the affection of a certain other student...
"I guess I have a habit of not really being what people want me to be."
Aya
Cain's older sister, and a somewhat contrary girl. She's often cold to other people, and even colder to herself.
"I'd be better off if everyone just left me alone..."
Hardy
The Rock Gym Leader, and younger brother to Titania. Always upbeat and positive, Hardy tends to get along poorly with his former classmate Fern. He hopes to one day become a famous musician on top of his battling career.
"Chin up. You're gonna rock this fight, aye?"
Bennett
A studious boy, Bennett spends most of his time alone in his room with his research on bug types. As a result, he is often times quite awkward around others. Bennett is the son of the Ice Leader, Serra.
"Something about how little insects can go from what they are to something so much more is just so exciting!"
El
El is a religious man, acting on behalf of the Arcean Divinity. He also claims to be the father of the missing Dark Gym Leader, Luna.
"Prosperitas, Pax Pacis, Obseqium. Blessings of the Lord Arceus upon your house."
Serra
The Ice Gym Leader of Reborn, Serra was once a famous model. However, she gave her career up in favor of her son, Bennett. She seems to live in the shadow of the past, feeling as if everything is slipping away from her. She is also Luna's adopted mother.
"Within reflections and crystal imperfections, there's art. It's something I could never hope to live up to again."
